i-Boating now supports Auto Pilot

The i-Boating application for iPhone and Android, now supports Auto Pilot.  When using "Route Assistance" or "Goto WayPoint" in i-Boating, the application can now send AutoPilot NMEA commands to your Auto Pilot over TCP.

This is how to enable it on your iPhone or Android.

  • Tap menu/overflow button and select Settings -> NMEA Instrument Settings
  • Check the box that says "Enable Auto Pilot"
  • Either choose the default or change the settings as per your Auto Pilot Docs
  • Tap on Save
The next time you use "Goto WayPoint" or "Route Assistance", the application will send  NMEA instructions to your Auto Pilot.
